Chapter 648

Early September, Fuyou Street, Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu's small home.

Li Ye took the tableware after dinner to the kitchen and washed it thoroughly, ensuring Watching Wen Leyu wouldn't be able to pick out a single flaw.

Since getting married, the two had formed a tacit understanding: Watching Wen Leyu cooks, and Li Ye washes the dishes.

But if Li Ye didn't wash the dishes clean, Watching Wen Leyu would blame him a few times and then do the dishwashing work herself. If Li Ye wanted to grab back the right to wash dishes, he would have to spend a lot of effort.

This wasn't because Li Ye was being cheap; what big man wouldn't want to wipe his mouth and lie on the sofa comfortably?

It was really that Li Ye couldn't bear to.

Having finally married such a beautiful little wife, he couldn't treat her like a rough maid, could he?

And Li Ye's heartache for Watching Wen Leyu wasn't a meaningless sacrifice. As long as Watching Wen Leyu felt Li Ye's love for her, she would inevitably return more gentleness, thoughtfulness, and obedience.

Especially the last point, which was very important. The young couple had been married for half a month and had already perfectly unlocked several positions.

"Xiao Yu, eat some fruit~"

After Li Ye finished washing the dishes, he cut some fruit and took it to the living room. Since entering Jing University, Watching Wen Leyu had become accustomed to Li Ye's fruit feeding; who let Li Ye know more about nutritional matching?

However, after Li Ye called out this time, Watching Wen Leyu didn't respond to him as usual.

Li Ye walked over and saw that Watching Wen Leyu was staring blankly at a calendar in the house.

Forget it, the little wife is counting the days with her fingers again.

Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu married on July 17th. After marriage, they didn't take any safety measures.

As a result, after the little bull plowed the land with great effort for a month, Watching Wen Leyu's maternal relatives still came to the door on time.

Li Ye was a bit panicked at the time.

【Damn, I won't have the same problem as Xiang Shaolong, right? That would be a huge loss.】

And Li Ye's unstable emotions were clearly noticed by Watching Wen Leyu. Although she didn't make much sound, she had eaten plenty of old hens and old turtles these days, and the two of them ate together.

Even the ginseng sent by his close friend Sun Xianjin was secretly stewed in chicken soup by her.

Li Ye had told Watching Wen Leyu once, "We're still young, no rush."

But after he said that, Watching Wen Leyu seemed even more anxious.

Look, seeing that the day of the second month was approaching, the little wife looked even more nervous than Li Ye.

Li Ye felt sour in his heart, and it hurt.

Watching Wen Leyu is only twenty-three! This is the age to enjoy love decades later. Now, in order to have a child for Li Ye, she's almost worried about forehead wrinkles.

"Xiao Yu, the rain has stopped, let's go out for a stroll!"

"Ah? Okay, wait for me to change my shoes."

Watching Wen Leyu was stunned for a moment and then happily agreed. After the two married, their habitual after-dinner strolls hadn't been interrupted. As long as the weather permitted, the young couple would walk along Nanhai and Zhonghai all the way to Beihai and then slowly stroll back.

And at this time, Watching Wen Leyu would return to her appearance in university, cute and lively, completely unlike a "married woman."

"Come, come, come, I'll serve my wife and put on her shoes."

"Go, go, go, if you put on my shoes, we won't be able to leave the house in ten minutes."

"I'm serious this time. I just learned a new way to tie shoelaces..."

"Get lost, I'd be a fool to believe you!"

"."

In September in the capital, it had already started to become cool, especially in the evening after the rain, with fresh air and pleasant temperatures.

Watching Wen Leyu generously held Li Ye's arm, squinting her eyes comfortably, enjoying the freshness after the rain, as if she had forgotten her worries just now.

But when the two strolled to Beihai, Watching Wen Leyu abruptly blurted out: "Sister-in-law called me today and said she might be pregnant."

"."

Li Ye finally understood why Watching Wen Leyu was counting the days with her fingers today. This is to compete for first or second place!

Li Ye hugged Watching Wen Leyu and said with a relaxed smile: "Might be pregnant? Then is she pregnant or not?"

Watching Wen Leyu pouted and said: "I guess she's not pregnant. She's just hesitant and came to probe my tone. Sister-in-law is becoming less and less honest and is playing tricks on me."

"."

Li Ye smacked his lips and figured out the taste.

Sister-in-law Pan Xiaoying still wanted to take care of her career first and not have children, but that day, Teacher Ke had already taken the opportunity of Watching Wen Leyu's return to the maternal home to knock Pan Xiaoying, and Pan Xiaoying expressed she dared not disobey.

After all, Pan Xiaoying dared to play tricks on Watching Wen Leyu, but she didn't dare to fight with Teacher Ke.

So she started comparing herself with Watching Wen Leyu.

If Watching Wen Leyu doesn't have children, then I won't either. Why don't you talk to your own daughter first?

【Isn't this adding pressure to my wife? Whether you want to have children or not, what does it have to do with our family?】

Li Ye was a bit angry, but still had to smile and comfort Watching Wen Leyu.

"Maybe Sister Xiaoying has been too busy with work lately! I heard that Factory 506 seems to be competing for a bid with Bell and Fujitsu recently.

As her first battle after being transferred to Factory 506, the pressure is probably not small, so it's understandable. Whether she wants to have children or not has nothing to do with us. Let's just let nature take its course! At most, I'll work hard to plow..."

"What do you mean understandable? How much effort does it take to have a child?"

Watching Wen Leyu turned her head to look at Li Ye and said unhappily: "She is clearly half-hearted, wanting both families to help each other and not wanting to delay her development.

Treating marriage as a child's play all day, wanting my brother to love and cherish her, but not taking my brother seriously. Is that appropriate? In my opinion! She will never know what love tastes like in her life, being clever but mistaken, putting the cart before the horse, and not distinguishing between importance..."

"."

Li Ye was shocked.

She wasn't shocked that her gentle little wife had the potential for a "poisonous tongue," actually cursing that Pan Xiaoying would never taste the flavor of love in her life.

But shocked by Watching Wen Leyu's sentence, "How much effort does it take to have a child?"

Isn't having a child a lot of effort?

Shouldn't it be a great contribution that costs half a life?

Shouldn't it be a medal of achievement that suppresses the whole family with a child?

How come in my wife's mouth... it's not a lot of effort?

"Actually, Sister Xiaoying called me today for another matter."

"Another matter? What matter?"

"She introduced me to a business."

Watching Wen Leyu sighed and said in a low mood: "She said a friend has connections in Japan and has confirmed that Japanese stocks will rise significantly in the future, so she wants to find someone to cooperate with to speculate on a certain stock..."

"."

Li Ye was stunned for a long time before holding back his laughter and asking Watching Wen Leyu: "Then didn't you tell her that she's showing off in front of Guan Gong?

Your man, I, am studying economics. Do I need to cooperate with others to play stocks? Let those guys who play with empty gloves and white wolves stay away from us."

Watching Wen Leyu shook her head slightly and said disdainfully: "I won't show my cards to her! My mother doesn't ask much about our family's affairs, so why should I let her know? Besides, the task you gave me is to invest in industry. Let our mother handle financial matters!"

Since getting married, Li Ye had gradually revealed his trump cards to Watching Wen Leyu.

Although Watching Wen Leyu had no desires and didn't ask in detail, not knowing how much money Li Ye made, she knew that her mother-in-law was looting in Japan and had already expanded from a big fish into a standard financial crocodile.

So when Pan Xiaoying said she "had a way to speculate on stocks in Japan," Watching Wen Leyu only felt it was a bit ridiculous.

Why do I need to speculate on stocks in Japan? If I call my mother-in-law, she can take me to fly, okay?

However, Watching Wen Leyu sighed and continued: "But Sister-in-law's friend is not playing with empty gloves and white wolves. He wants to mortgage assets to dismantle foreign exchange from us, and then..."

"Stay away from them, blacklist them, blacklist them all!"

Li Ye interrupted Watching Wen Leyu directly. You must know that Li Ye almost never interrupted Watching Wen Leyu before.

But he was angry now.

What is mortgaging assets to dismantle foreign exchange? In this day and age, where do assets come from?

Are you kidding? Even if it's the highest quality asset, it absolutely cannot be involved. If you are not careful, it will be a lifetime of infamy.

"I already rejected her," Watching Wen Leyu said depressedly: "But I'm just worried about my brother. You say, how did I end up with such a sister-in-law?"

"."

"Don't worry about it blindly. You have to trust your mother in this matter. Since your mother chose Pan Xiaoying, she naturally has her reasons."

Li Ye smiled and touched the little wife's head, hugging her and walking back.

Although the combination of Pan Xiaoying and Wen Guohua was not a perfect marriage in Watching Wen Leyu's eyes—after all, the combination of the two was not based on feelings—Li Ye absolutely believed in Teacher Ke's vision.

The purpose of the combination of the two families is to integrate the resources they each possess. Even if the couple is arguing fiercely today, they still have to help each other when voting tomorrow. You pull me, and I help you.

When Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu strolled back to the door, they found that Li Dayong and Pei Wenhui had arrived.

Li Dayong smiled at Li Ye: "Brother, your life is really comfortable. I envy you to death now. If I had known, I would have just gone to the assigned unit to work."

After Li Dayong was assigned after graduation, he went directly to the factory manager of the assigned unit, and after some research, he resigned and went to sea.

Since he was working for himself, he was naturally more energetic the more he worked, accidentally working until midnight. He might still envy Li Ye's life of getting off work on time and strolling with his wife.

"Forget it! Carrying someone else's bowl and being managed by someone else. You two just came back from a wave in Europe, right? If you were working in a unit, try taking a long vacation..."

Li Ye laughed and scolded while opening the courtyard door, letting Li Dayong and Pei Wenhui into the living room.

"If you want to drink something, go to the refrigerator and get it yourself! Don't expect your sister-in-law to serve you. She only serves me now."

"Alright, I'll just treat this as my own home."

Li Dayong laughed carelessly, took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, and drank it without seeing himself as an outsider.

Pei Wenhui smiled and looked at her man, then took a thick document from her handbag and handed it to Li Ye.

"Brother, this is what I investigated according to your requirements, some companies in Europe and the Lighthouse. They all have the intention to transfer technology to us. See if their conditions are suitable?"

Li Ye didn't take it, but said with a smile: "Give it to your sister-in-law! From now on, this work will belong to your sister-in-law to handle."

"Oh my, I recognized the wrong immortal!"

Pei Wenhui stuck out her tongue and handed the document to Watching Wen Leyu.

Watching Wen Leyu took it and flipped through the catalog. Sure enough, it was information about companies in the automotive industry chain.

A few days ago, Li Ye told Watching Wen Leyu that he wanted to introduce advanced auto parts production technology urgently needed in the interior and leave it to the several companies controlled by Watching Wen Leyu to operate.

The backwardness of the interior automotive industry is an overall backwardness.

For example, gearboxes, starters, main reducers, engines, brakes, etc., all have huge gaps with the world-class level.

If you adopt the method of independent R&D to catch up with the world, it will undoubtedly be very time-consuming and laborious.

After all, a light truck has thousands of parts, and a Santana is composed of tens of thousands of parts. If you piece together high and low, it will be like the "barrel effect," lowering the reputation and grade of the whole car by the lowest short board.

So if you want to improve your level as soon as possible, introducing technology and digesting technology is a feasible shortcut for overtaking.

But if you want to introduce advanced technology in the automotive industry chain, Li Ye's Hong Kong-funded or private enterprises are not as useful as Watching Wen Leyu's unit.

For example, now Li Ye wants to introduce a set of West German heavy truck technology as an "individual business owner." It is very likely that he will toss and turn for a long time and fail in the end.

Because the country has just invested heavily to introduce Austrian Steyr technology, what do you want to do?

This set of Steyr technology supports many state-owned enterprises. Are you, an individual business owner, eating bear heart and leopard gall? Dare to grab food from state-owned enterprises? Won't they pinch you to death?

Auto parts are not the clothing industry. Not to mention that you can't trade without a certificate, it's illegal.

Even the party you supply to is a unit with a party committee. Everyone is connected, and they communicate with each other. One sentence is that they don't want your products, and even if you give them away for free, they might not necessarily want them.

But if you change a production subject, it's different. The specifications of the Zhongxin Company are originally very high. After Watching Wen Leyu invested, it is still a state enterprise. Flowers bloom everywhere, and the meat is rotten in the pot. Why can you do it but I can't?

Don't look at Wahaha as being managed by individuals, but the state holds nearly half of the shares, and it is still a state-owned enterprise.

So if you want to run an enterprise in the interior, it's not enough to just learn market economics; you also have to learn political economics.
